Effects of various antiepileptics on behavioral and electroencephalographic seizures induced by maximal electroshock in mice.
The changes of electroencephalogram induced by maximal electroshock were studied in comparison with behavioral seizures in mice. After electroshock, mice showed tonic flexor (TF) seizure, tonic extensor (TE) seizure, and clonic (CL) seizure, in this order of occurrence. At the same time, high frequency spike or spike and wave complex in the cortex was observed, and thereafter, the frequency of ...
متن کاملNefopam enhances the protective activity of antiepileptics against maximal electroshock-induced convulsions in mice.
Nefopam is a centrally acting non-opioid analgesic with a mechanism of action that is not completely understood. Adverse effects associated with the therapeutic use and overdose of nefopam are mainly associated with the central nervous system, such as hallucinations, cerebral edema and convulsions. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of nefopam on the electrical threshold and its inf...
متن کاملAnticonvulsant Activity of Viola tricolor against Seizures Induced by Pentylenetetrazol and Maximal Electroshock in Mice
Background: Recently, there has been much more interest in the use of medicinal plants in search of novel therapies for human neurodegenerative diseases such as epilepsy. In the present study, we investigated the anticonvulsant effects of Viola tricolor (V. tricolor) on seizure models induced by pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) and maximal electroshock stimulation (MES). Methods: Totally, 260 mice were ...
متن کاملTrazodone reduces the anticonvulsant action of certain classical antiepileptics in the mouse maximal electroshock model.
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to examine effects of an acute and chronic treatment with trazodone, a serotonin antagonist and reuptake inhibitor (SARI), on the protective activity of four classical antiepileptic drugs provided in the maximal electroshock test in mice. METHODS Electroconvulsions were produced in mice by means of an alternating current (50 Hz, 25 mA, 0.2 s) and delivered ...
متن کاملThe effects of Tilia platphyllos scop. extract on seizure induced by picrotoxin and pentylentetrazole in mice
The effects of Tilia plathphyllos scop. in a nervous disorder, including seizure was reported in traditional literatures. In the present investigation, the effects of methanolic extract of T. plathyphyllos on seizure induced by picrotoxin and pentylentetrazole were studied in mice. In this experimental study, groups of 5 animals pretreated with doses of 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg of methanolic extr...
